Looks great!!! Good color choice. Did you do it yourself or have someone else do it? If someone else is it powder coated or just painted? What color is that? I am dying to get mine done but one body shop told me powder coating will weaken the wheels so he wouldn't do it.

Thanks! Had someone else do it in nj. It's anthracite gray matte plasti dip and the calipers are burnt copper VHT paint. I think it came out pretty well.

I kinda like the gray matte dip. I have satin black now. Currently in a dilemma whether I want to to look like the dark Knight or gray matte.

Once you get the halos it will look amazing

Calipers look really good. It all comes together really nicely with your dark (black?) car.

Yeah it's black. I wanted something a little more subtle than the yellow a lot of people do, I think it came out well especially with the anthracite wheels to give a nice contrast

Thanks! I can't take credit for the paint job itself, but hey it is my car. I'm loving the look of the copper
